Want to sharpen your life skills? Interested in being a more effective member of a study group? Recently elected to office and don't know where to begin? Are you interested in running for a leadership position in a club or organization?

Co-curricular Activities, Programs & Services (CAPS) is dedicated to helping you acquire, develop, and enhance the leadership and management skills you need to compete in an increasingly complex and interdependent world.

Through CAPS's credit classes and non-credit seminars, workshops, and other experiential and interactive programs, you can learn theories about leadership, acquire practical communication and organizational skills, meet highly motivated fellow student leaders, and share and exchange ideas with students, staff, and faculty. Through these comprehensive program offerings, you can prepare yourself for college leadership and future professional leadership positions.

The CAPS Leadership staff is also available to assist you with your student organization. We can help you develop a training program, workshops, or conferences designed specifically for your organizational needs. The CAPS staff offers one-on-one personal consultations on leadership style, leadership goals, and any concerns you may have with your organization.

Several leadership courses (for credit) that are offered are:

• ENGR/IS 250 - Personal Development for Effective Teams
• EDEA 360 - Dynamics of Student Leadership
• EDEA 460 - Emergent Paradigms of Leadership
